According the Elettric 80 President, Enrico Grassi, “Palletizing robots, laser guided vehicles (LGVs), stretch wrappers, product tracking software and labeling machines have never been used in tandem before. We developed FREEWAY as an automation solution. It is based on a simple idea…robotic palletizing cells handle goods at the end of the production line, then LGVs transport the pallets to the stretch wrapping and labeling equipment.”
